So far, Nightdive has listed out stretch goals stretching up to $1.9 million.
Features like global illumination, physically-based rendering, etc. The game is being developed in Unity (And boy, does it look good!), taking full advantage of the recently overhauled game engine. Pledges range from $5 to $10,000, but all you need to do is put down $30 if you want a copy of the game-on Xbox, Steam or GOG-at the time of its release, which is set for 2017.

System Shock and its sequel, System Shock 2 can easily be classified as defining moments in gaming history. System Shock, that very name brings back memories of sleepless nights, dreams of wandering through Citadel Station and scariest of all, Shodan! Nightdive Studios, the owners of the game's IP, have just put a reboot of the game up on Kickstarter.
